I took this picture of cattails on the shore of Abbott Lake when Betsy and I were at the Peaks of Otter Lodge in Virginia for her birthday this past August.

Beautiful cattails, George. Love'em!
Ah, cattalos,this looks much waker than right now.I love the water droplets on the plants.
Nice picture. I've always liked cattails. We called them punks.
And those cattails don't leave fuzz around my house!! Love 'em!
Love this shot, they are amazing plants, I have a post coming up on them!
Nice cattails but I'm looking at the water beyond and wondering if the big bass are in shallow spawning? Actually I'm looking at two feet of snow and daydreaming of spring fishing. :)
Love your cat-tails George, have you ever caught them when the seeds get blown?
Just the other day I saw some with the fur sticking out and I wanted my guys to pick one to see but they didn't.
If they can be grown by the seaside they can collect ay oil that may be found there They can collect a lot.
Wonderfull capture fotos and lovely blog greeting from Belgium, Louisette+2 golden retriever
I love this photography George. It has great composition.

Crisp focus, George. You captured the droplets and the cattail textures quite nicely.
Love this photo!!!
This is a great shot of the cattails. I have not seen those in long time. They look like wieners on a stick.
August! The word itself and this image warm me up! Beautiful.
I love the looks of cattail plants.
Lovely shot!
I like them with the rain drops.
Growing up I had a place near my house full of cattails- and red wing blackbirds- great image!
I have seen them in pictures but never seen with my own eyes.
Nice photo of the cattails. You must have captured them right after a rain.
